Innovation Catalyst
ASSETT

As ASSETT’s Innovation Catalyst, Blair Young stewards our Innovation Incubator — a safe, resourced space where the College of Arts & Sciences community can grow their active teaching and learning ideas. With an emphasis on change facilitation and innovation advocacy, Blair partners with students, babyÖ±²¥app, and staff as they traverse the often unpredictable turns of fostering an emergent project. Blair has a passion for enabling a sense of ownership — of learning, programs, projects, and more — in the people with whom she works. For CU Boulder students, in particular, she hopes that this will open a pathway to success, well-being, and access to the resources they need to live a fulfilling life on their own terms.

Blair is a volunteer member of the Board of Directors of the nonprofit Boulder Food Rescue. She loves the outdoors and spends her free time transforming her suburban backyard into a "farmette" while cultivating her vegetable garden and tending to her chickens and bees. A mountain-dweller at heart, Blair heads outdoors to camp and recreate with her family as often as possible.
